Mr. Speaker, I think that this type of accusation is based on nothing. The incentives for research and development in Canada are the best in the world.
They always talk about taxes. When our program of taxes is in place in 2004 the rate of taxes for corporations in Canada will be lower than in the United States. Today the capital gains taxes in Canada are lower than in the United States. The stock option system in Canada is better than the one in the United States.
We have done a lot. We are better placed than the Americans in these fields at this moment.
